(Verse 1)
Mind's a battlefield, thoughts a raging sea
If I don't hold the reins, who's steering me?
Heart breaks like a wave, crashing on the shore
But from the wreckage, a vision starts to soar
(Chorus)
Let the past be dust, a memory I've outgrown
Peace with what was lost, a seed I've newly sown
Imagination's pain, a twisted, cruel design
Reality's embrace, a truth that will refine
(Verse 2)
Can't rewind the clock, no do-overs, that's the rule
But where I stand today, I'm taking back control
Time's a precious gift, don't let it slip away
Selfish with my moments, I won't pay the price to play
(Chorus)
Let the past be dust, a memory I've outgrown
Peace with what was lost, a seed I've newly sown
Imagination's pain, a twisted, cruel design
Reality's embrace, a truth that will refine
(Bridge)
Lonely whispers, doubts that creep inside
Toxic company, nowhere left to hide
But I'll rise above, learn from every fall
Sometimes I win, sometimes I stand tall
(Verse 3)
"Maybe" is a lie, when "no" is what I feel
Words like daggers, secrets I conceal
Trauma's grip, a shadow dark and deep
Pushing love away, while my soul starts to weep
(Chorus)
Let the past be dust, a memory I've outgrown
Peace with what was lost, a seed I've newly sown
Imagination's pain, a twisted, cruel design
Reality's embrace, a truth that will refine
(Outro)
Dead plants wither, taking up the space
Time to cultivate, a new and blooming grace
Inner circle small, filled with hearts so true
Kindness and respect, that's the energy I pursue
